Sweden's ECLIPSE To Release Limited 12" Vinyl Edition Of Armageddonize Album
Inner Wound Recordings will release a limited 12" vinyl edition of the album. A deal was inked with Frontiers, and the release date is set for March 6th for Europe and March 31st for North America. The edition is strictly limited to 500 copies worldwide and includes an insert with lyrics. 400 copies comes with a standard black disc, and 100 copies with a white disc. Pre-order here.
Recorded and produced by the band’s main songwriter and singer Erik Mårtensson and lead guitarist Magnus Henriksson, this new release sees the quartet ready to unleash 11 monster slices of melodic, yet hard-hitting, rock on their ever growing fan base.
In the second half of 2014, Eclipse teamed up again to write their new studio album. The bar was set high and the initial goal was to top their latest album and the result was achieved brilliantly with the aptly titled Armageddonize, an album where the band rocks from start to finish like there is no tomorrow.
Says guitarist Magnus Henriksson: "No Eclipse fan will be disappointed. I guarantee that! Eclipse fans are very open minded and have always embraced the fact that this band is constantly evolving for the better. We have some surprises on Armageddonize that the fans might not expect. We became better songwriters on each album we did and Erik on this one sings better than ever. It's incredible how he keeps getting better. I thought we had heard the best from him, but no. You'll be surprised to hear how damn good he sings!"
With Armageddonize, Eclipse are showing that they are not anymore the brightest hope for melodic hard rock music, but a truly solid and hard as a rock reality. They are still young, ambitious and full of energy. Eclipse music is not a revival, and it’s not nostalgic. Still… it’s by far the best you can have today if you love rock music with energy, great songs, and want to hear a band that has the ambition to be on top of the world!
With the release of their fourth album Bleed And Scream, Eclipse gained a solid reputation and a steady following with this album that took their melodic hard rock roots in a more contemporary direction. Producer and main songwriters Erik Mårtensson and Magnus Henriksson strongly improved their skills by writing and producing a vast amount of bands and projects, from the successful W.E.T. albums (together with singer Jeff Scott Soto and Robert Säll from Work of Art) to Toby Hitchcock, Giant, Jimi Jamison, Dalton, Adrenaline Rush just to name a few. This has gained Mårtensson a reputation as one of the top producers/songwriters in this genre today.
Concludes Magnus: "We started as a band with all kinds of influences, but I think on our third release 'Are you ready to rock', we started to work more on the songwriting and the 'Eclipse' sound finally took its shape. I think you can hear that most distinctly in the song 'How to mend a broken heart'. That style of songwriting is very Eclipse and it rubbed off a lot on the W.E.T. sound as well, particularly on songs like: "One Love" and "Walk Away". On Armageddonize our style is chiseled out and it sounds more Eclipse than ever. We've got our own unique sound now. No other band sounds like Eclipse today and we wanna see where we can take this band. I know we've got so much more in us. The sonic blast is here to stay!!"
